Shot on the top of a glacier at 2800m with all the weather and location challenges you can imagine; this 9000lb glass cube gave birth to a beautiful piece of cinematography. Thanks to those crazy french guys from Leo Burnett, Paris. The concept was great, the shooting was memorable. Thanks to all my crew that made it possible... and froze their butt. The end result is very rewarding : 8 Cannes Lions Shortlist nominations, 2 Gold Lions and 2 Bronze Lions. Enjoy and share]]> ThIs film was an incredible human experience.

Captive of a short unforgettable instant, sincere equilibrium is reached through this exchange that will require no further explanation.
In my view, some states go beyond our understanding, this one is one of them.
Is it because the gift of speech has not been granted to the animals that they will reciprocate with such intense looks ?
This project aims to transcend the easy pictures of spectacular animals.
Instead , we will focus on the inner beauty of these animals, updated through intimate close-ups as well as some unique morphological details.
To accomplish these images, it was mandatory that they be aware of my presence and accept it.
The process therefore required a set of elegant approaches prudent and peaceful, only to be rewarded with these pictures .
The exceptional skills of my guide, Tosha and his tracker were the key elements in the success of this South African adventure.
Slowly, we reached close enough to capture those moments. Slowly, we created the necessary privacy, so that the eye contact becomes the inward door.
We ventured very close to our subjects, sometimes too close.]]> This photography project attempts to capture the intensity and naive simplicity transmitted through a look between humans and wildlife.

Time has a different pace, nothing is sudden. The lack of relief, the absence of trees lets one see everything coming, like a fatality.
Land is frozen so hard that it wont give or take back.
It is perhaps for this reason that the souls, dancing in the sunlight, paint long lasting sunsets or wander with the wind over the ice fields.
I understand that silence is not empty, everything is present.
All has left a trace, but as peacefulness surrounds us now, sounds have became un necessary.
Even when life has deserted the enveloppes, all will inevitably remain like immobiles testimonials; like open books for the journey man.]]> Above 70°, silence and colours will take an expression of their own.

These intricate landscapes and textures become beautifully simple compositions when viewed from above.
Offered only to birds, this scenery waited patiently thousands of years before being revealed to Man?s sight.
Maybe was it the required time to translate the blind forward race towards future, into an untouchable vision of an endless path.
Maybe it is the time needed for the quest to reach it?s true meaning.
Maybe it is the time needed for imagination and inner reflection to rejoin themselves into one common reality.
